Their error is that they divided 12 by 30, instead of 30 by 12 in order to get the price per pair
the correct unit price is $2.50 per pair
2.5 * 12 = 30
G = 4n is the correct equation to use. Eg 10 x 4 = 40, 18 x 4 = 72 and 21 x 4 = 84
First you need to see that this is a quadratic. I need.to put all of the values on one side of equation to see what I got.
6r^2 + 7r + 8 = 6
6r^2 + 7r + 2 = 0
Now this one is difficult to factor so i will use quadratic equation:
[-b (+-) sqrt (b^2 - 4ac)] / (2a)
we know that a b and c are in a quadratic at these positions.
ax^2 + bx + c
so
[-7 (+-) sqrt (7^2 -(4)(6)(2)] / (2) (6)
[-7 (+-) sqrt (49 - 48)] / 12
[-7 (+-) 1] /12
split into the + and - for 2 answers
(-7 + 1) / 12
-6/12
-1/2
And
(-7 -1) /12
-8 / 12
-2/3
those are.the 2 answers
But but it says largest so -1/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 = 1/8
Taking the cube of both side
x^3 = 1/(2)^3
(x)^3 = (1/2)^3
Eliminate ^3 from both sides
x = 1/2
Answer: Michael is 72.
hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Brandon be b. Then Michael is 3g.
3g-18=9(b-18)
3g-18=9g-162
6g=144
b=24
3g=72
